Mondays and Fridays are companywide virtual days, and Tuesday through Thursday, the offices are open. While employees are encouraged to go in, the company is not requiring it.

“Capital One is the most considerate organization I have ever worked for. I remember being sick during my pregnancy and had to go on maternity leave early. I was in the hospital most of my pregnancy, and unable to have a baby shower. The company took up a collection and bought me a gift card from BabyrUs. This was 8 years ago, and I will never forget the impact it had on me and my family. This is just a small example of the type of consider caring people that work here at Capital One.”

“Capital One puts people first. I always feel like my safety and wellbeing are put on the forefront. For example the pandemic. Capital One quickly made the decision to start working from home. We will not be one of the first companies back into the office until everyone feels comfortable going back. Capital One has provided numerous outlets for mental health and physical health that may have taken a toll in this past year. This is hands down the best company to work for if you want to feel valued and loved. It's a large company, with so many people, but you're never lost in the numbers. You're free to be you.”

The pandemic posed an immediate conundrum for bank branches that needed to provide services while keeping employees safe. Capital One, like other banks, implemented safety measures, but the firm also temporarily increased hourly wages, boosting pay by $10 an hour for branch and Capital One Café employees and adding $5 an hour for call center agents. U.S. nonexempt hourly workers, meanwhile, were still paid for all their hours even if they had to pare down their schedules or couldn’t work remotely. That has all helped the credit card titan based in McLean, Va., jump 15 spots on Fortune’s list this year. Remarks one employee: “Sure, it’s just a bank, but it’s run by people who haven’t lost sight of the people in it or the people who are our customers.”

Total revenue for the world’s biggest companies fell 4.8% to $31.7 trillion this year—the first decline in half a decade.
